Re: Neptune - Can't Get Vocal Audio Out

Do you hear audio if you monitor through an audio track with no effects on it? Likewise, can you record dry signal from a mic/instrument and see the waveform in the clip without Neptune or any other insert active?

If you can do that, Neptune *will* work. If not then something else is up.

Re: Pitch shifting (needing advice)

What you're talking about is pitch envelopes for audio, and Reason can't do this. I very much wish it could! I think you could maybe put Neptune on it and just automate pitch on that (making sure to disable key tracking and scale correction). You could also drag the sample into Mimic and then make s...

Re: [Wave / Chill] Nexus

Hey! So this was actually started in Live, just on my bed with my laptop. But the sequencer was doing my head in so I stemmed it out and replaced some things/finished it in Reason proper (all the synths were RRP anyway so it was like using Reason with extra steps lol) https://paulortiz.bandcamp.com...

Re: sound design vs preset tweakers

More presets than tweaking these days. My time to write is limited, and deadlines are often tight. Time spent making a sound from scratch is time NOT spent writing music (with the exception being sound design cues). One thing that I need to get into the habit of doing is using my down-time, or more ...

Re: Left right arrows not triggering notes in piano roll?

Yeah this has been a FR of mine for ages. Notes should preview when selecting and also nudging up and down with arrows. Currently they don’t and it makes keyboard editing almost useless for me. Here’s hoping!

Re: "Pump" is back in the shop

I wonder if there's any hope of the 'bug' being fixed where the envelope runs continuously when the transport is stopped and the mode is set to note or gate trigger? It's not a huge thing but...it'd be nice haha. I'd pay for it lol

Re: Rack Extension subscriptions in shop closing 13th of April

I had a sub for aaages, pretty much since it started.

So I started replacing them with licenses over time. By the time ...

Re: Are you taking advantage of blocks?

Love Blocks, although they can be frustrating. A great use case for them was when, for reasons definitely not related to poor time management and procrastination, I found myself with about 2.5 weeks to crank out 22 tracks. I basically populated the arranger with blocks to map out how I wanted the so...

Re: Audio/Recording problem Reason 11 Suite

Have you pressed the input config button in the audio settings to make sure the inputs are enabled/ticked? And are its inputs showing up as available options for audio track inputs in the sequencer? That’s the only thing I can think right now.

I experience this with Massive X and Super 8. They also take a long time to load in Cubase 12 Pro so I guess it's something about their interfaces. Couldn't tell you what though!

This is one of those things that feels like it's how it's supposed to work though. Like if I enter a clip and do a select all, I *only* wanna select things in that clip.

Instantly bought before even demo'ing. It's fantastic. Doesn't add heaps of latency like Polar or just about any other pitch shifter I've used.
